Chapter 10 Big Business
Early in the morning, they were about to leave Sanpin Street and follow Zhu Wen to send them to Longqiu, Ye Kai was very indifferent, but the third uncle Ye Fushun had a cloudy and uncertain face.
All the guys and the Ye family of Longsheng are carrying steel knives, just waiting for an order, they are going to 'snatch' Ye Kai back, it seems that after a night, Ye Fushun still feels that he can't let the Guangnan people take Ye Kai away!
All the Quang Nam people besieged the city in a circle, and they used their bodies to tightly squeeze Ye Kai and Anna the golden silk cat in the middle.
Zhu Wensheng's face was solemn, he knew that it was impossible to take Ye Kai away so easily, how could the Ye family say that it was also a wealthy family in Nanyang, and if he wanted to take away this kind of heir to a wealthy family with tens of thousands of Ding Zhuang, the lord of the country still thought too simply!
Ye Kai smiled indifferently, and was about to appease his third uncle, when there was a sudden uproar of people outside the gate of the Longsheng, as if countless people were rushing here!
"Young Master Ye is not afraid, the Xie family from Chenghai County is here, I see who can take you away today!" We Tang people are not easy to bully! ”
A high-pitched voice sounded, 'bang', the door was pushed open, Ye Kai and everyone looked out, a big man with a wide forehead and a wide mouth held a slightly exaggerated gold wire ring knife, followed by a vote of people with guns and sticks, etc., judging from the costumes, they are all Chinese!
"The Guo family of Tong'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture is also here, is Ruan Guozhu a soft persimmon when we are Siamese Chinese? Hit someone if you want to? Arrest people if you want to? A shirtless strong man with two steel knives also walked in.
As soon as he said this, a burst of laughter broke out in the crowd, Ruan and soft have the same sound, and soft persimmon is about equal to 'Ruan persimmon', which is the favorite words of the Chinese in Siam to make fun of Quang Nam people!
"That's it! If you are allowed to take Young Master Ye away like this, will anyone be able to come to our Sanpin Street to beat and arrest people in the future? If this is the case, we will be the first to disagree with the Huang family at thirty-five! ”
The last one to speak looked polite and polite, and he didn't have a weapon in his hand, but everyone behind him had a guy in his hand!
There were so many people pouring in that the small courtyard behind the Longsheng was filled at once, and people were still coming from outside the courtyard.
Ye Kai looked around, and they were all strong men, all of them were holding weapons such as big knives and spears in their hands, and there were even more than a dozen foreign guns, two or three of which were flintlock pistols!
'Boom! Ye Kai couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw Zhu Wensheng, in the face of so many people and such powerful firepower, the personal protectors of this Ruan State Lord didn't even have the courage to take out the flintlock handcuff from yesterday, and the other Quang Nam warriors were even more unbearable, and they even began to tremble!
Ye Kai suddenly felt a little tearful, who the said that the Chinese are not united?
Look at these overseas Chinese, if they don't help each other, after experiencing the back and forth oppression of white colonizers and aborigines, and experiencing so many hardships, how can Nanyang Chinese still pass it on?
How can we still get a small country in later generations, and the Malay Chinese tradition has not been broken?
Ye Fushun proudly brushed up a few strands of goatee under his chin, Ye Kai now understands that after he was watched by the Guangnan people last night, the third uncle never tried to find him, it turned out that he ran out to 'pull people'!
Of course, this is also related to Ye Kai's performance, he fought eight Guangnan warriors by himself yesterday, he was brave and strategic, and the Ye family who did not leave the Longsheng fled by himself, and he showed benevolence and righteousness, so the Chinese on Sanping Street were also willing to stand up for him!
"Shu Wu is young! I have done a lot of foolish things before, and all the neighbors and elders are so protective of the kid, which really makes the kid grateful, such a righteous act, I Ye Kai will never forget! ”
Ye Kai, who was a little moved, bowed deeply to the surroundings, no matter how down-and-out Ruan Fuying is, he is also a prince, and it is not easy for the Chinese in Sanpin Street to follow the Quang Nam warriors for him!
"But today's matter, the fault is not on the Lord Ruan, the main thing is that the kid is not virtuous, so it's not that General Zhu wants to arrest the kid, but I voluntarily go to Longqiu to explain a thing or two to Lord Ruan, I believe that with the support of your elders and brothers, Lord Ruan will definitely forgive the kid!"
These few words are Ye Kai's weight for himself, in case Ruan Fuying really doesn't get in the oil and salt, then he also has to consider the reaction of the Siamese Chinese.
Although it is impossible for them to directly merge with Nguyen Phuc Ying for Ye Kai, but the Chinese control most of the business activities in Bangkok, from small daily utensils to large swords, guns and armor, no matter what Ruan Phuc Ying buys or sells, it is inseparable from Chinese businessmen, and it is unlikely that Chinese businessmen will attack Ruan Phuc Ying, but they can isolate him!
"Yes! Ladies and gentlemen, rest assured, my godfather is the most respected person of His Majesty the King, and I can ask him to come forward and ask His Royal Highness the King to forgive Mr. Ye! ”
Anna, the golden cat who was squeezed in the innermost, also stood on tiptoe and shouted outside in blunt Vietnamese, after two days of getting along, the golden cat cherishes this yellow person who is most like a 'civilized person'!
After listening to Ye Kai's words, everyone looked at the strong man of the Xie family who spoke at the beginning, obviously he was the person who spoke among the Chinese on Sanpin Street.
The strong man of the Xie family looked at Ye Fushun again, this is the Ye family's business, and Ye Fushun has to come up with an idea!
Ye Fushun didn't expect Ye Kai to say this, in his heart, Ye Kai took the opportunity to leave and go back to Beidani, it was the best choice, he really didn't dare to let Ye Kai take another risk!
"General Zhu! How about I go and have a conversation with my third uncle? Ye Kai knew the concerns in Ye Fushun's heart, and turned his head to Zhu Wensheng and said.
What can Zhu Wensheng do? Now the situation is no longer something he can hold, and Ye Kai can't help him whether to go to Long Qiu or not, so he can only nod stiffly!
"Third uncle! Prepare two thousand tika for me, and it's best to get fifty more foreign guns, whether they are arquebuses or flintlocks! ”
In a small room in the backyard of the Longsheng, Ye Kai said solemnly.
Tika is the current currency of Thailand, a small silver coin that is not very well made, and is directly linked to silver, which is the predecessor of the Thai baht, which was later the Thai currency.
One tika is about fifteen grams of silver, which is almost half of one tael of silver in the Qing Dynasty, and two thousand tika is close to one thousand taels of silver, which is not a small amount of money anywhere!
Ye Fushun looked at Ye Kai suspiciously, could it be that the nephew of the second ancestor who spent money like water in the past has come back? The performance of these two days is just pretending? Is the purpose or money?
Ye Kai also paused for a moment before remembering the meaning of Ye Fushun's strange expression, the former owner of this body was too cheating, and he coughed embarrassedly.
"Sanbo, don't worry! I don't want to cheat money from you to spend it, but I've found a business worth investing in! ”
"What business? Are you talking about Quang Nam people? "Saying that nothing else is okay, saying that Ye Fushun's reaction to doing business is definitely the fastest, he only thought about it a little, and guessed what Ye Kai meant by a business worth investing in?
